Planning on a Black bear hunt in the Kenai this summer. One problem is my buddy’s rifle is a Ruger .44 mag carbine, which may be a bit light but with the right loads, I imagine it’ll do the trick on black bear’s. I recommended Buffalo bore ammunition to him. Is the any particular buffalo bore load anyone recommends for Black Bears.
The gun is a Ruger Deerfield carbine .44 mag. I don’t know anything about the strength of that particular gun, but I imagine if it’s anything like other Ruger’s it’s pretty strong. The other possibility is I could loan him my slug gun, but I’d rather he stuck with a gun he’s familiar with.
